C-428 - What Happened?

Whatever happened to Bill C-428 supporting immigrant families' access to Old Age Security?

Hon. Ruby Dhalla and Hon. Bob Rae moved to protect immigrant seniors with some income support that would have a minor impact on the federal budget. It would, however, have a major impact on attracting the immigrants we need to sustain Canada's economy and help us all thrive.

Seems a pretty small investment in egalitarianism for a pretty large return in business creation, job generation and and resulting tax revenue.
